Abstract: In this study, finite-element (FE) modeling was used to examine the influence of biaxial lateral loading of a monopile foundation. Two different soil models were adopted to investigate the influence of state-dependent and ...

Abstract: Stone columns are a popular form of ground improvement that can be applied to a variety of foundation solutions involving soft soil deposits. Many design methods are based on an assumption that columns with a length-to-diameter ...

Abstract: Databases used in developing cone penetration test (CPT)-based design methods for driven piles have been dominated by data for the preformed variant, with the driven cast-in-situ (DCIS) pile category poorly represented. A ...

Abstract: Mass stabilization, a ground improvement solution used for construction in peatlands, involves mixing suitable dry binders into the peat, increasing strength and stiffness and reducing permeability. A previous pilot study ...
